Self signed certificates not working
SkaveRat says: When using synapse with self signed certificates, the request dies with Error: unable to verify the first certificate This is fixed by using rejectUnauthorized: false in the request opts. Making this flag optional might be useful for "do you trust this certificate?" confirmations.

Devs can manually fix this by hooking into the request function, but we should have better support for self-signed certs in general (actually specifying the fingerprint and allowing it to be explicitly trusted which is the remembered).
SkaveRat says: note: this happens when using a non-browser environment like electron, which doesn't allow adding certificates manually or accepting unknown certificates manually
I also got this error when trying to work import the code into Mozilla chat client, see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1199855#c12
